Amid intensifying global trade competition and continuously rising compliance thresholds, companies seeking global expansion require not only solid product quality but also the protection of authoritative accreditations. Recently, Anbotek achieved dual milestones in the field of information security: its information security laboratory not only successfully passed the accreditation assessment of the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS), but its EU cybersecurity EN 18031 test reports were also reviewed and certified by EU Notified Bodies, including Spanish APPLUS NB 0370. The combination of these two achievements signifies that Anbotek’s information security service capabilities now simultaneously meet both “domestically top-tier” and “internationally recognized” standards, providing crucial support for Chinese companies to break through EU market barriers.

As China’s sole national conformity assessment accreditation body, CNAS is renowned for its technical rigor and stringent standards. Its accreditation is considered a “national passport” for laboratory competence. This CNAS accreditation, coupled with Anbotek being among the first laboratories in China to obtain CNAS testing capabilities for EN 18031-1:2024, EN 18031-2:2024, and EN 18031-3:2024 standards, demonstrates that Anbotek has achieved a leading domestic level in information security testing technology, quality management systems, and laboratory process control. This fully equips them to meet domestic compliance testing needs for enterprises.
Concurrently, the breakthrough with the EU Notified Body certification further solidifies Anbotek’s international service capabilities. Notified Bodies like Spanish APPLUS are highly recognized within the EU market. Their approval of Anbotek’s EN 18031 test reports confirms that Anbotek’s assessment process fully complies with EU cybersecurity regulations, and its test results carry credibility in the EU market. Companies can select certificates from corresponding NBs based on their target markets, eliminating the need for repetitive testing and significantly reducing the costs of market entry.
Focusing on EN 18031 Compliance: One-Stop Service Solution
With the mandatory enforcement of the EU Cybersecurity Act approaching on August 1, 2025, the EN 18031 series of standards has become a “mandatory requirement” for products entering the EU market. These standards cover various categories including internet-connected devices, data processing terminals, and virtual currency transaction equipment, specifying clear requirements for device cybersecurity protection and data privacy. Many companies face challenges such as tight compliance testing timelines and numerous technical difficulties.
Addressing this pain point, Anbotek Laboratory leverages its technical expertise to offer a comprehensive one-stop service chain encompassing “standard interpretation – compliance testing – certification advisory – rectification guidance.” Benefiting from an in-depth understanding of the EN 18031 series standards and collaborative advantages with multiple NB agencies, Anbotek’s team can respond quickly to client needs, accurately identify testing challenges, and provide effective rectification solutions.
